I had it for an entire week... Like water ... Very normal! It will change! Your body has been through some changes . I am now five weeks out today! Everything has been normal in that area for several weeks now!

Thanks @@alyce20

My goodness! I texted my sister and told her I had the butt gurgles lol! She finds it hilarious! I'm glad my side effects amuse her lol

So glad you posted this! I was wondering if I became lactose intolerant? It seems every time I have a protein shake...one of the ingredients in the powder is milk.

Remember, liquid in = liquid out!!! I also have those issues when I eat some foods.. watch out for sugar free candy too!

I just experience that today. I had ate 2 tablespoons of lobster bisque. I started to get abdominal cramps and had to run to the toilet. No lobster bisque for me anymore.????????????

Yep totally normal. Old joke when I was post op... never trust a fart :)

I almost posted that myself haha

Girl... liquid in, liquid out. Once you get on purees and then solids that will go away. You will probably experience constipation then!

Don't worry too much. You might have it for a long time. I still do and I'm almost a year post op. It's like clockwork though…when it's done in the morning, it's done all day. Another long time poster and I refer to this as poop soup.

I had that for about 5-6 weeks, and now it's totally the opposite.

  • 4 weeks later...

Glad you all posted... my stomach rumbles, I wish I could pass the gas... starting liquid poops yesterday 2 days post op. I wish the gurgling would stop.
